Why am I paying so much for reducing channels. RE: Cartoon Network

I have the Ultimate package and Gigabit internet.  
I pay close to $300 a month for this. 
I have to do this because you keep removing channels that people like and are moving them behind packages so they have to pay more.  
I have to pay for something like 200 channels just because there’s maybe 20 in all that my family watches. 

Every year, I get less and less for my money. 
And you take more and more, little by little, just by adding a dollar here or a dollar there. 

You moved Cartoon Network into a package that costs $10 a month. You know how many channels that $10 gives us. I know you do, cause you work there.  
It’s 8 (technically your website only lists 7, but CN wasn’t listed so I included it) . 8 channels for $10. Six sports channels, a classic movie channel (TCM) and Cartoon Network. That makes no sense to me. 

More than a dollar a channel. And since you know some people will pay the $10 just for TCM or CN, it’s more than a dollar a channel. 

if I could buy the channels we actually watch, a la carte for $1.13 (the cost per channel for the package with CN) a channel, I would save money. 

Also, since you guys own Peacock, why do I have to pay for it?

Anyways, time to call up whatever AT&T is called now.
